LOL, no. The card didn't come from Ebay, but I know there are quite a few of these BFG's that have the same problem... My brother reallllllyy botched the RMA process. He probably told them to get eff'd... rofl.

Patch is right.. The missing part is indeed a cap. I think it's called a fart or farat cap or something like that (just wanted a reason to type the word FART)... I just need to know the rating so I can get once at least that size or bigger. Might order a pack of them if the volts and capacitance is right for cap mods (adding these kind and then ceramics on top for the win).

A good proper measurement on a good card should get the mystery solved.

@ Chuck... I resized it down. I can post up the original poster size if you like.

Marking on the pcb is c1369.
